 You can find fuses at any auto parts store around you. Make sure you check the number on the fuse and it's size. I would recommend you to take it actually.. I don't know about the tc.. but on my dads F250.. it was a pain to find the fuse for his lights.. so I can imagine for the cig fuse..

Once you find which one it is... just take it out.. get a new one and put the new one back in.

 yea okay because i heard that the cig fuse is like extra long or tall or something and you have to take it to the dealer to get the right one?...does anyone know how much the dealer charge for the part and i guess "install"?

 don't let the dealership install that at all...
seriously.. they'll probably find a way to charge you $60-70 for a 2 second job.

it's a low profile mini fuse that you need to replace... replacing it with a regular mini fuse is fine, but it'll stick out... (you can't reinstall the cover).. but it'll work just fine.

fuses are cheap as hell... but the dealership should have the low-profile ones if you really want to find them.

LED Swaps and parts available! PM me for details, questions and/or quotes.
